Chapter 097: Blindfolding
"Giggles......
The scratching sound in the coffin became louder and louder, Wang Ling'er glanced around, and then cautiously leaned towards the coffin.
"If you want to know the truth, you can only open the coffin and see!"
I nodded slightly, and immediately my heart sank and followed closely.
Even if there are ghosts or zombies inside, it shouldn't be too much trouble to have Wang Ling'er there.
The two of us cautiously moved to the coffin, and Wang Ling'er asked me to go to the end of the coffin and turn over the rest of the soil.
After I had completely removed the soil, Wang Ling'er took a deep breath, and then worked with me to lift the lid of the coffin.
My nerves jumped, the moment the coffin lid was opened, I was ready to meet the enemy, but when I saw the panorama inside the coffin thoroughly, Wang Ling'er and I were suddenly blindsided again.
"How can it be..... How could there be nothing in it? I couldn't help but reach out and rub my eyes.
Wang Ling'er directly stretched the hoe in his hand into the coffin, "It's strange, I heard a voice just now!" However, after she turned around the coffin with a hoe, she found nothing.
The coffin was empty, nothing!
I said, "Could it be that we all heard it wrong?" ”
"Impossible!"
Wang Ling'er turned her head to look at the locust tree beside her, and then quickly moved forward.
She stretched out her hand and touched the locust tree, and said to herself, "Could it be that this old locust is playing ghosts?" ”
"Lu Yuan, come here!"
Wang Ling'er called me.
I leaned in, and she looked at me, "Let's dig under the tree." ”
I said, "Do you suspect there's something strange under the tree?" ”
While Wang Ling'er nodded, her hands had already begun to dig.
Seeing this, I immediately raised the hoe and dug it up one after another, what is the conspiracy behind Grandma Liu's grinding of yin oil, I think only by following this clue can we find out the reason.
"Stop!"
Wang Ling'er and I were digging hotly, when suddenly an old woman's voice came from behind.
"I asked you to investigate Musang, why did you come here to make trouble?"
Wang Ling'er and I turned around and saw that the old woman we had met in the forbidden place earlier was already standing upright behind us.
The old woman's face was full of anger, and she looked like she was going to eat people.
Wang Ling'er and I were both stunned for a moment, "What's the matter, if there is something weird, we are not allowed to investigate?" ”
Wang Ling'er stared at the old woman, "What is the relationship between you and Grandma Liu?" ”
"You don't need to know about it!"
The old woman snorted coldly and said, "If you want to leave this village alive, I advise you to go back and investigate Musang as soon as possible, there is nothing you are looking for here, and it is not as evil as you think!" ”
Halfway through the matter, the old woman suddenly ran out and disrupted the situation, and Wang Ling'er and I had no choice but to walk out unwillingly.
Now, if we force ourselves to come with the old woman, it won't do us much good.
Once there is a stalemate, if she unites with Patriarch Mu Sang to deal with us, the result will only be a lose-lose situation, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Besides, we have to leave this unknown ghost place, and maybe we need the help of the old woman.
Walking out of the mountain pass, Wang Ling'er has been sullen, and it can be seen that this girl is not dead in the heart of the Yellow River, and is still thinking about the locust tree.
Not long after leaving, Wang Ling'er suddenly exclaimed: "I understand what's going on!" ”
I looked at her suspiciously, "Sister Ling'er, what's wrong with you?" ”
Why was it shocked?
"It's a ghost covering his eyes!"
"Lu Yuan, you and I were blindsided by ghosts just now!"
I was surprised and said, "You mean, we just couldn't see the contents of the coffin because the eyes were covered by a ghost?" ”
"Not bad."
"There must be a ghost who, while we opened the lid of the coffin, blocked our vision with its hands, so that neither you nor I could see the contents of the coffin!"
Wang Ling'er spoke very quickly, and looked at me in a deep voice.
I was shocked, there was a ghost standing behind us all this time?
Could it be the sudden gust of wind just now?
It's a pity that Wang Ling'er and I don't have a pair of yin and yang eyes like the old king, if you want to see ghosts, unless they take the initiative to appear, otherwise even if they stand in front of us, we can't see them!
Wang Ling'er said that there must be something in the coffin, but someone deliberately didn't want us to see it.
I said, "Could it be the old woman?" ”
"It could be her, but Grandma Liu is the most likely!"
Wang Ling'er said, "It is estimated that Grandma Liu was aware of it when we started digging the ground. ”
When I heard this, I hurriedly said, "How is this possible, wasn't she taken away by Tie San?" ”
At that time, Wang Ling'er and I both saw Grandma Liu walk out with Tie San, how could she suddenly notice that someone was about to move the coffin in the ground?
"Yes, I wonder too, but now that I think about it, it's most likely the problem with those two locust trees."
"The problem with the locust tree?"
I didn't quite understand, so I looked at Wang Ling'er and asked, "You mean, the reason why Grandma Liu can detect it is completely because of the locust tree's ventilation report?" ”
Wang Ling'er glanced at me and said unhurriedly: "There are two possibilities, the first is that the locust tree can ventilate the news, and the second is that there is a ghost living on the locust tree!" ”
"As I said before, the locust tree belongs to yin, and ghosts like yin things the most, so there are often ghosts staying by the locust tree."
"Moreover, that ghost is specially offered by Grandma Liu to guard the coffin buried in the ground!"
After listening to Wang Ling'er's words, I thought about it carefully, and it seemed that there was indeed such a possibility.
But if this situation is ruled out, there will only be the locust tree to report to Grandma Liu.
It's just that there is a big question here, that is, how do two trees report to people? It doesn't seem to make any sense at all.
Wang Ling'er obviously didn't understand this either, and she said that only the second option was the most likely.
I knew that she was worried about the coffin in Grandma Liu's field, so I said to her: "I definitely can't go and check it again at present, the old woman has noticed our actions, so I can only investigate the patriarch Mu Sang first." ”
Now I just want to get two things done as soon as possible, the first thing is to find my dad, who has disappeared in the forbidden land, and I guess there is some danger.
The second thing is to leave this ghost place and find the fairy bone golden seal in the grotto.
As for these tricks in the village, to be honest, I don't want to ask too much, what conspiracy is behind them, I really don't bother to deal with it.
It's just Patriarch Mu Sang, I still need to investigate, because it is about the mystery of the forbidden land, my father is still in the forbidden land, and if he doesn't find out this secret, it is estimated that there will be no way to save him.
The old woman said that she wanted to break the blood moon in the sky first, and I discussed it with Wang Ling'er, thinking that even if there was a conspiracy inside, I could only follow the investigation now.
Early the next morning, the patriarch Mu Sang came to the temple early, and after briefly asking me and Wang Ling'er some trivial matters, he left.
I don't understand, which one Mu Sang is singing, anyway, it's all trivial things, how he asks, we will answer.
Not long after Mu Sang left, Tie San walked in, and seeing that Jin Ling's mother and daughter were not there, Tie San said to me and Wang Ling'er: "Since there is no problem with Grandma Liu, it is important to investigate the patriarch Mu Sang as soon as possible!" ”
Wang Ling'er said: "Mu Sang seems to be honest, but in fact he is scheming, it must not be so easy to deal with, I am afraid it will be very difficult to investigate him secretly." ”
I said to Wang Ling'er, "I didn't see that he was scheming, why do you say that?" ”
"You stupid, didn't he just want to come over and trick us?"
Wang Ling'er smiled coldly and said: "Although the question he asked is insignificant, he is throwing stones everywhere to ask for directions, knocking on the side, fortunately, you are not too stupid, and you were not brought in by him!" ”
I laughed, and then thought about it carefully, and what Mu Sang asked seemed indeed a little strange.
He asked us if we slept well at night, whether the blood moon in the sky was very red, whether there was a quarrel at the temple gate last night, whether we knew Grandma Liu or anything like that.
When I heard it at the time, I thought Mu Sang was a chatterbox, and he had nothing to ask about trivial things, but now I think that he was simply using an excuse to test me and Wang Ling'er.
Tie San said that Mu Sang is indeed very scheming, he has secretly investigated for a long time, but he has never found any useful clues.
Mu Sang hid very deeply, and he didn't leave any clues at home.
However, there is one thing that is very suspicious.
When Tie San said this, he looked around left and right, and then approached me and Wang Ling'er, and whispered:
"Mu Sang has a room in his house, which is always locked, and it is very strange that there is a piece of land in his backyard!"
It didn't seem wrong to have a locked room in the house, so I asked, "What's that weird place?" ”
Tie San frowned and said to us, "You don't know, the soil in that field is blood-red!" ”
Tetsuzo said that one night he was secretly investigating Musang, and accidentally stumbled into the field in the backyard, and accidentally tripped over a stone due to his hurry.
However, when he fell, he was surprised to find that the color of the layer under the soil was actually blood red, and there was a strange smell!
At that time, because Mu Sang had already noticed it, he didn't have time to take a closer look before he left in a hurry.
Later, I tried to check it out, but I never found a suitable opportunity.
I said, the blood red of the earth in the field is indeed eerie.
Wang Ling'er thought for a moment and said, "You say, could it be related to the red moon in the sky?" ”
Tie Sanyi and I listened and nodded immediately.
Tetsusan said that he had indeed envisioned it before.
The ground in the backyard of Mu Sang's house is so coincidentally the same color as the blood moon in the sky, there must be something strange inside!
